The Treadmill Trap: Why You’re Exhausted but Still Not Scaling

Overworked and underpaid? Here’s the brutal nutshell: You’re stuck on the Freelancer Treadmill Trap. It looks like this… overcommitting and saying YES to everything … charging too little so you end up doing everything solo … filling your diary but still scraping by … letting delivery crush your marketing and strategy time … burning out and resenting the work … watching revenue dip when projects end … and spiraling into self-doubt when you’re too drained to fix any of it.  Without a clear Map, you’re guessing at what matters; without a solid Vehicle, you’re stuck manually chasing every lead; and without a trusted Crew, you’re carrying the entire load alone.  It feels like this … exhaustion, occasional wins, and a nagging sense that something’s fundamentally off. In this episode, I guide you through stepping off the treadmill and into a CEO mindset. You’ll hear exactly how to draft your Map, assemble the Vehicle that runs on autopilot, and recruit the Crew that lightens your load.  Tune in to discover how to break the burnout cycle and finally get on a path where your income matches your effort!
